Individual look prevail Students dress match personalities In past years it seemed that fashion followed a certain set of rules. There were certain periods where everyone wore the same type of clothes. But this year especially, tradition seemed to change. Students were wearing many different styles, and the biggest trend of all seemed to be individualism and originality. The individualist look seemed to be the goal of most students, especially those who dressed in New Wave and Goodwill look clothing. These looks includedvintageclothingfrom the1950's and '60's, wild patterns, and anything that seemed out of the ordinary. Ideas for a certain style of dressing came from varied sources. Magazines, retail stores, music groups, and past fashions all influenced styles. Senior Todd Schroer said he got ideas for dressing from the characters in the Archies comic strip. IfittclothingI looks like something they would wear, then I buy it, he said. Some people chose to wear the newest fashion looks instead of vintage styles. POPULAR PAISLEY PRINTS provided a prominent new trend in this year's fashion, as senior Barb Burke shows. 12!Fashion PRINTED JEANS added variety to the old stand-by of blue jeans. Sophomore jill Hascall wears a colorful variation. Patterns such as plaid, stripes, floral, and paisley prints could be seen on everything from shirts to skirts and jeans. I like to be original when I pick my clothes. I like them to be a little different but still be trendy, said sophomore Iill Haskell who likes to wear the current fashions. Classic, more dressier styles, sometimes known as the Preppy look, was yetanother popularfashion. To top off these individual looks, accessories and the right hair styles were a necessity. Older antique looking costume jewelry was seen everywhere. Scott Wright prefers this style to the more trendier ones. I dress in the classic style because trends don't last long, he stated. Hairstyles were important to perfect that certain image. Some popular styles were the one length hair cut called a bob for girls, and a style called a flop where one section of hair is left longer than the rest of the hair. This style was popular for both girls and guys alike. Whateverthestyleworn, expressing yourselfwas a major goal. I like to stand out and make a statement with the clothes I wear, said sophomore Paul Gossin.

BOY IGIRL RELATIONSHIPS are very common and important among teenagers. Senior Robert Hesse and junior Kim johnson have been going out for over a year. Changing relation hip Teens value lovers, parents, friends The word relationship has many different meanings and these meanings constantly change throughout one'slife. A teenager's total existence depended upon hisfher parents. They supplied food, shelter, transportation, money, and entertainment. Now, however, a teen's life involves many different people to fulfill needs-needs which cannot be satisfied by parents alone. Teenagers develop a need for affection and esteem which is usually satisfied by a peer, commonly known as a friend. I admire the way Kris can find something positive about anything, said senior Susie Carlson about her best friend, senior Kris jones. These two have been seen together roaming the halls of both Irving and Southeast since eighth grade when they became close friends. Sometimes the start of a friendship can be an awkward but memorable experience as was the case for Carlson and jones. The first time they met was in seventh grade at Irving around Christmas time. jones was giving her Christmas cards out to the class and neglected to give one to Carlson. Carlson's feelings 14!Relationships FAMILY VACATIONS are a popular way of getting the wholefamilytogether. Here, junior Ed Pallesen, with his mother and brother, are touring Red Square in Moscow. SOUTHEAST IS FILLED with many long lasting friendships. Seniors Susie Carlson and Kris jones have been friends since seventh grade. were hurt and she expressed this to jones. jones has since made it up to her by beingaclose and supportive friend at all times. Both agreed that an ideal friendship must consist of honesty, the reassurance of knowing that the otheris always there, and trust. If everybody had a friend like the one I have in Susie, I sincerely think that the world would be a better and happier place to live in. Some people were able to find friends within their own family. Such was the case for junior twins Sam and Steve Clarence. The Clarences agreed that they are ...alike in all ways. We share the same friends and the same classes, but we have different girl- friends. Though the Clarences are alike in many ways, they find thatthe qualities they look for in a relationship of the opposite sex vary greatly. The importance of a relationship between members of the opposite sex became evident during the high-school years. You need a relationship with the opposite sex because you need someone you can be honest with and also enjoy spending time with, said junior Kim johnson about her relationship with senior Robert Hesse which in October had lasted for one year.
